Description

After using the other BBCode plugins available for WordPress and finding all of them lacking, I decided to create my own. It supports the following tags:

[b] — Bold (replaced with “strong” tag)

[i] — Italics (replaced with “em” tag)

[u] — Underline

[s] — Strikeout

[url] — Creates a link. Both [url=http…]text[/url] and [url]http…[/url] styles are supported

[quote] — Quoted text (replaced with “blockquote” tag)

[code] — Code (replaced with “pre” tag)

[size=n] — Font size

[color=#nnnnnn] — Font color

[img] — Inline image

[ol][li]…[/li][/ol] — Ordered list

[ul][li]…[/li][/ul] — Unordered list

Installation

Upload gorzek-bbcode.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory

Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

Enjoy!

FAQ

Does this support multi-line enclosed tags?

YES! The main reason I wrote this was because I have documents where an opening [b] tag might be several paragraphs up from the closing [/b] tag, and this caused other plugins–especially shortcode-based ones–to puke and produce no text at all.

Will you support YouTube tags?

If someone asks for it. I assume there are shortcodes that already do this, though.

Can you support random tag [x]?

Sure. Just request it in the comments here: http://www.gorzek.com/dev/wordpress-dev/bbcode-filter

Please describe the tag and what it’s supposed to do. I mostly want to support commonly-used BBCode tags, so try not to suggest anything too outlandish.
